Lynn,
?
I'm running APRSISCE for Windows Mobile on my AT&T Tilt 2 phone.?
?
?
I've done some basic experimentation and have only had it operating while mobile a couple times.
?
I have?at least gotten it?configured and feeding packets and location/telemetry data into the APRS-IS.
?
One thing I've found is that my?default zoom level was all the way out and I essentially have a?postage stamp size world map with?my tiny?icon in the middle.
?
For?zooming?I am not able to get anything to work via the?screen, but I can use the up and down keys on my physical slide out?keyboard to adjust the zoom.
?
The?red center?dot while mobile seems to move?randomly and wildly about at times.
?
Also I'm not?seeing any?other icons or stations showing up.??I have set to show all, do I need to explicity indicate stations that I'd like to see?? Or maybe I have something else configured incorrectly.? So far I seem to only have a one way connection out to APRS-IS,?and I'm not getting anything back.
?
One thing that would be helpful while mobile is a way to keep the sceen active/alive.? I've seen this setting on?other gps/mapping programs that I've used before and is helpful while mobile and not using external power and not wanting to change any other global screen dimming and power saving settings.? Also possibly a way to keep the program active and sending data when the application is minimized.? Right now I can only feed data if the application stays active, is maximized, and the sceen doesn't go to sleep.
? Also I haven't figured out how to get?a short cut in my start menu or programs on Windows Mobile.? It would definetly be good to get that and the?missing application icon resolved for future installs.
?
That's what I have for now for some basic testing and interaction.? Is indeed fun to experiement with this additional option for APRS, and look forward to future versions and enhancements.? Also if folks have any other thoughts for my issues above, feel free to comment.
?
Thanks,
?
